The Official NBA Season Thread

They're a potential Finals squad with him and a much better fit than Phoenix but it's hilarious and strange the vendetta he seems to have against them in particular

He knows Memphis isn’t giving him the extension

Yes, shame on the players for voting Wemby the fifth highest total in the West. SHAME!

They are acting like middle school girls. Blocking any opportunity from someone stealing their friends. They did it to Giannis too though. Being a Non-African (Nationality wise) Dominant Black international player doesn't sit well with them for some reason.

I ain't counting Canada (SGA), they can tolerate that since they are right there. But I'm sure they look at Wemby/Giannis as being only good because of their physical gifts.

We can unpack it if yall want.

Looking at the player rankings, the players have Giannis at #1 and Wemby behind several 10+ year vets MVPs & NBA champs, excluding Mobley who is on the #1 team in the league.

what’s the issue?

Along with not being in shape, this is the type of stubbornness/mindset that had to frustrate Kobe.

Which is why it was frustrating folks sided with Shaq back then. (Yes they did before it was cool to like Kobe)

Jimmy's ruining a potential blessing, that's a squad

Giannis: I am saying they did the same, as in didn't embrace him within the player circles. (See Harden especially). Not that they didn't vote for him where he deserved to be in this round of ASG votes.

Wemby: Yea the Mobley vote was the main reason my antennas went up. Sure, he is in first place so I CAN understand it but nah.

Same as Mitchell and Brunson. Nah.

But I get it, they've been around longer.

Jokic had 33 points 22 rebounds and 17 assist…in one game. Dude is top 10 all time. No debates

You can't say this without naming your top 10.

Stand on it.

What kind of extension is Jimmy even expecting? He's on a clear decline.

So is Jokic better than Shaq?

These are the claims we're making after a regular season win against *checks notes* The Kings?

2nd half should be interesting for the MVP race

It doesn't make any sense because it didn't matter before but I think Nuggets need to catch Houston for Jokic gets #4

Honestly if OKC keeps the #1 seed it shouldn't matter.

It's Shai's to lose.

Do it.

Cause the way these narratives change each year so Jokic gets to win MVP is disgusting. First player I've seen the media do this for.
